I understand. Another thing to keep in mind is that the performance might not scale linearly with a number of relevant ports. If for X ports all the relevant data under /var/db/pkg fits into fs cache, then the performance may be blazing, but once you exceed the cache size the performance might become totally different. -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
